awesome!!!
So, you base your theory in that:
- barnacles can be found in nebulae (only some nebulae)
- these nebulae relate to their origin
- being logical why they are in nebulae if think about it
- the origin is not a nebulae
I don't get it, but it is fine, I hope you are right!
From what information I have gathered and from certain sources... I have come to a conclusion.
The Barnacles are an alien of an unknown race that we dont know about yet.
The UAs are Thargoids. Considering the chirping and chattering and the leathery texture of the thing.
The Barnacles are planted by a seed that is not the UA. If they were seeds why are there loads of them around Merope? it would not make sense.

I admit freely I could be wasting my time, but as far as I can tell searching for barnacles could also be wasting my time. If they were meant to be found on particular planets in particular locations in space wouldn't they be thriving in those planets and easy to find? Until I find concrete evidence to support the fact they cant be grown by players I will continue to believe they can. Just because I'm not clever enough to figure it our doesn't mean it isn't possible.
Whatever the case right now none here can say for sure so I think it would be wise to keep our minds open to any possibility, rather than discounting one on the basis it seems unlikely.

No bro. The quote above is missing some context. This was a response to someone asking,
"Now that we have found a barnacles in Pleiades can you be more candid about what other nebulae we can find more?" The commander then names a specific nebula.
Michael Brookes then says: "I am afraid not - the nebulae that they can be found in relates to their origin and I can't talk about that"
To me , clear as day, the barnacles were hand placed in specific nebulae that relate to the origin of the barnacles. How else can it be interpreted?
There are no other nebulae that have these barnacles. Just the ones that relate to where they come from.
I made the connection in my head that a symbol usually represents a group, faction, or where you are from. The symbol, to me, looks like 3 nebulae formed into one symbol. The 3 nebulae that relate to their origin. I dont believe this is a "wild theory" with many wholes in it. It is pretty solid. Until someone finds another barnacle in a completely different nebulae, this will be my personal theory. These three nebulae have something to do with the origin of the barnacles and the only visible thing I can see is the triangle and the locked systems all inside this triangle. I think the story is yet to be finished and hidden inside the locked systems for the time being.
But the UAs and Merope is a separate thing. This is also "semi" hinted at by MB.
Merope is the big thing now. The big event with all eyes watching.
Again it is all interpretation. The nebulae they are found in relates to their origin. That does not have to mean the nebulae they can be found in is their origin
Edit @vision how can you tell me there is no other way to interpret the comment when there are at least 3 of us right now debating the interpretation?

Are my words just not being organized correctly?
1- Barnacles are only found in the nebulae that relate to the origin of the barnacles. How do they relate? My theory is that they originate from somewhere in the middle area of these 3 nebulae. Something in the center of the 3 nebulae created these creatures.
2- Barnacles need Nebulae gases to breathe like an atmosphere.
3- The 3 nebulae where these barnacles were planted are depicted on the symbol found on the barnacle. The three nebula are represented by three shapes that come together to form the symbol. The symbol does NOT represent a single nebula rather three nebulae. That is why the symbol is made of 3 organic shapes.
4- The origin of the barnacles doesnt have to be inside a nebulae. They could have been engineered in some lab somewhere unknown. That location in theory is somewhere inside the area within the triangle. Probably closer to the center and most likely blocked by "unknown permits" as in, it is not yet ready to be revealed.
My biggest lead: the origin of the barnacles is not something that can be revealed yet and lies inside the locked systems.
MEROPE is the stage that we should be watching. Until someone finds another barnacle outside of these three nebulae I will continue to stick with this. I tried looking in other nebula. I even spent a week in the Hind nebula. Havent found anything. No one else has either.

I never said that the nebulae are the origin. I said they relate to the origin. My theory is that because the nebulae where they would eventually be found would form a shape or an area that relates to their origin. Someone or something inside this triangle would be the culprit for planting these things there.

I think I'm just going to go with this from now on actually. Saves headache. We cant find out anything else until further content is released. It isn't great game design but it is still a great game so I can live with that. Could of told us rather than just watch us run around like headless chooks trying to work out something we just can't yet. Oh well, Now I can just kick back, relax and keep on going about my usual business until whatever happens happens. Surely wont be long now anyway.

So, what about those not hand placed as MB already mentioned too? how does this work in your theory.
A few days ago there was no other nebula than Pleiades. Not that we have exhausted our forces looking for other nebulae to confirm or deny, just barely scratched the surface.
I'm just playing devil's advocate here, I don't mean you are not right, this is science.

Actually, if this bothers you I can just stop commenting what I consider loose ends on your plot.
All of the comments from MB were around the time that the first barnacle was found. We had not yet found these three different nebulae.
Now that we have found these nebulae they do give us a hint as to the origin of the barnacles. The most obvious one being the center/origin of the triangular shape.
The only other explanation would be, what do the nebulae gases and materials have in common? But me I tend to stick with the obvious explanations first. Location as in proximity to the home base of these barnacles somewhere in the middle.

They are not as important obviously, none have been found and they are randomly generated not hand placed. If I had to make an educated guess, they would be randomly generated POIs inside these nebulae.
That is exactly the point. We have now found the nebulae that have these barnacles. Now how do they relate to the origin? I have given you my theories. There are no wholes in my theory based on the current and up to date information that we have.

Someone from Canonn told me that it had been done and led nowhere.

What loose ends exactly? I am not trying to be right for the sake of being right. I just use my head, and prevent wasting time doing things that I know dont fit. Once, and if my theory is proven incorrect, then I move on and narrow it down further. It isnt about being right or wrong at all. Science doesnt care about who is right or wrong. It just looks at the facts and the evidence.

I just wanted to grow a barnacle is that too much for one man to ask haha
lol We all want to be able to leave our persistent mark in the galaxy.
But seriously speaking I dont think that Frontier have added that feature. It would require some database work to keep track of persistent POIs, it would be complicated if everyone started doing it.
your theory is accommodated to whatever is hidding in the locked sectors as the source of the barnacles, and from what we do know (nothing at all) it is pure speculation.
whatever is hidding or coming from sectors COL 69 or 70 may or may not have anything to do with barnacles. what do you mean when you say your theory doesn't have any hole? or saying the logo of the barnacles correspond tonthese three nebulae, I'm having a real trouble imaging this (are there three nebulae drawn in that logo?) considering what the logo is.
but it is a theory after all, we all have to work to prove it right/wrong

Barnacles and UAs make very similar sounds. It's far fetched to not assume they have the same technological origin. Also there's the station damage/cure mechanic in place to suggest they are closely related. So, if UAs are Thargoid, then barnacles should also be thargoid or something related in my opinion.
